An Infographic of NYC’s 5 Boroughs

New York City, it’s a helluva town!

Being a former resident of New York City, I can say with certainty that it is one of the greatest cities in the world. There is so much to do, so much life, and more importantly so much diversity. Each of NYC’s five boroughs have their own style and flavor; and while every neighborhood is receiving a gentrified makeover, they all still maintain their own sense of culture.

In the infographic below, the popular hotel chain Marriott gives a quick snapshot of each of the five boroughs: Manhattan, The Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island. First time tourists could easily glance at this graphic and understand where each borough is located, the history behind it, helpful lists of attractions and neighborhoods located in each area, and, of course, when in NYC, you should be eating non-stop so… there are also lists of iconic restaurants.

Does this infographic list every neighborhood, restaurant, or attraction in the borough? No, those lists would take many, many independent graphics all on their own, but it looks great and gives a few general ideas to get you going.
